| Newer Blues Artists or Recordings For some Chicago-style electric blues/jump blues with terrific slide guitar check out: Lil' Ed and the Blues Imperials, "Roughousin'", "What You See is What You Get", "Jump Start". A great band to see live as well. I've seen them three times and... | |
| Gain and level controls on an amplifier-a good thing? I think there is nothing wrong with having a volume control, as long the circuit is properly designed. My power amp has one and the manufacturer said some people prefer to not use a preamp, so they are glad to have it. His design is such that if y... | |

| 2a3 ? Loving my Whammerdyne DGA1 amp pushing out just over 4 watts per side, with ultra wide bandwidth transformers (14 Hz - 50k Hz +/- 3 dB). If you are near Atlanta, GA, you are welcome to stop by for a listen. | |

| Would you buy a pair of speakers by just looking at the measured freq. response? No more than I'd purchase a piece of art based on its written description. | |
| Extract vocals or instruments from tracks with AI! Awesome! I would like to run thru all of my many Keith Jarrett recordings and extract all of his distracting whining and moaning. It'd be worth it just for those to me. | |
| Your greatest high end audio purchase!!! It’s a tie for me: My PAP Trio15 Horn1 speakers with my Whammerdyne DGA1 amp (4.3 glorious 2A3 watts of sonic beauty). | |
| Good Speakers for Rock and Roll Under 15K After hearing Cornwall III and IV I felt they were really great with R&R. Not so much with other genres, but terrific with rock. | |
| Best Options For A Tubed Preamp - $2500 Or Less, Preferably Used To Maximize Value Line 2CRM Line Preamplifier from Mapletree Audio - An earlier version has been in my main rig for many years while I upgraded everything else around it. Fun to tube roll to get the sound you prefer. https://www.mapletreeaudio.com/ | |
| What would you do? Back when I was figuring this out as I was building my system I experienced the most tube sound benefits from the power amp. Every tube piece made an improvement in sound, but for me the amp made the biggest difference. | |
| ***Seasons Greetings A'goners***Are You Getting Any New Gear For Christmas*** Simply one pair of interconnects from Silnote. But that will complete all ICs being switched over to Silnotes. I am always on an extremely strict budget and as I swapped in each Silnote IC over time the sound became more and more organic, to my l... | |
